    Hey, it is labor day

    A holiday to celebrate the worker. I celebrated by getting my unemployed 18 year old out of bed this morning and making him clean out the garage. Good times, good times!

        Over here, the labour day is celebrated on the 1st of May.

        Anyway, happy labour day wherever you are.

            In addition to being a paid holiday from work, it is supposed to be the end of summer and the vacation season.

                Oh thanks a lot, I had not thought about it until you just brought it up. Now I am depressed. You have ruined my holiday.

                            I didn't know it was a holiday till I moved away from home. My dad thought it was named that because it was a day to labor. So we did.
                            I know I should be ashamed of myself. Strangely though, I am not.
